Here are some reasons why keeping accurate records is essential in layer farming:
- Monitoring production performance
Accurate records of egg production, feed use, and bird deaths give insights into flock performance. These records help farmers find problems, adjust feeding, and improve productivity for consistent and high-quality egg production. - Health management
Health records are necessary for tracking vaccination schedules, disease outbreaks, and treatments. Watching the flock’s health allows for quick actions, reducing disease spread and ensuring the birds stay well. - Feed management and cost efficiency
Feed is the biggest cost in layer farming. Keeping detailed records of feed use helps improve feeding methods, cut waste, and lower costs. Farmers can also track feed conversion ratios (FCR) to see how well feed is used to produce eggs. - Profitability and market insights
Record keeping helps track production costs, egg sales, and market trends. Farmers can use this data to predict demand, adjust production, and make more profit by selling during high market prices.
